The Predator Sport2 Playing Cue
VIP Prize Winners Announced
MATCHROOM SPORT are delighted to announce the winners of two top-of-the-range Predator cues as part of the VIP Prize Draw made following the 888.com World Cup of Pool at York Hall, London.
Pool fans who had purchased VIP tickets were entered into the draw, with Jon Shapland winning a brand new Predator BK3 break cue. Faster, Stronger, and more powerful, Predator created the BK3 after two years of research and development. The BK3 features more than a dozen design changes from the renowned BK2, providing more power for that all important first-shot and making it the world’s best cue.
Londoner Steven Baker was the winner of the all new Predator Sport2 high-performance playing cue. Engineered to exacting standards, the Sport2 features a four-piece hard maple butt construction, the tunable Uni-Loc® Weight Cartridge System, and the all new Sport2 grip featuring five different traction zones.
BK3 break cue winner Jon Shapland said: “When I was contacted to saying I'd won the BK3 cue I was absolutely chuffed. Predator are the elite cue-makers and their equipment is used by a lot of the professional players, so I'm very happy to get my hands on a top-quality bit of kit!”
Steven Baker, who won the Sport2 cue said: “I got the message that I had won and couldn’t stop smiling. My friend and I had been looking at the Predator cues after the championships discussing how good they were, so first things first, I phoned him and rubbed the good news in his face, with the challenge of a Saturday game. I can’t wait to break the new cue out and show my stuff!”

PartyPoker World Pool Masters Poster - 2013 © Çakti Aswan | Matchroom Sport
Çakti Aswan reveals latest poster design
In 2006, I co-promoted the Mosconi Cup, when it was held in Rotterdam's Cruise Terminal. That's when my work for Matchroom Sport began with the Mosconi Cup logo, which is now recognised worldwide. Since, the logo has been tweaked and refreshed.
My design work extends to the World Pool Masters, World Cup of Pool, World Championship of Ping Pong, Weber Cup, Fish'O'Mania and Prize Fighter. Designing artwork for these events starts with an event logo: it needs to appeal directly towards its audience, incorporate the main sponsor's logo and be suitable for TV and other applications.
Generally, the design of an event logo is followed by the conception of a poster, flyer, programme and diverse internet banners. Making sure all artwork is consistent in style is key, because we want to project a professional image and live up to Matchroom Sport's reputation. Each event has become an acclaimed brand which the audience, the fans and partners can relate to.
I've been using the CorelDraw Suite - vector and bitmap oriented - since 1993, back then, release 3 and nowadays, X5. People frequently ask why I'm not using Adobe software (Photoshop and Illustrator). Well, my background is industrial design engineering and 3D CAD software used to run exclusively on MS-DOS, later Windows. Hence, the choice for the CorelDraw Suite, which runs in Windows, whereas Adobe graphic design software used to run only on Apple. I've become an expert in CorelDraw and Corel Photopaint. So, I stick to it.
Come to think of it, mentioning sticks, let's play pool!

He’s Back!
SIX YEARS after his last appearance in the PartyPoker.net Mosconi Cup, EARL STRICKLAND is back! The 52 year-old veteran will make his 14th Mosconi Cup appearance at the Mirage, Las Vegas from 2 to 5 December as he joins Johnny Archer, Rodney Morris, Dennis Hatch and Shane Van Boening for the 20th anniversary edition of pool’s biggest event.
‘The Pearl’ has enjoyed and endured a love/hate relationship with the event ever since his winning debut in 1996, but his 65% win percentage over 13 Mosconi Cups is still a record for the competition. Strickland has been on the winning team on no less than nine occasions and following his recent win at Turning Stone, there is a popular feeling that he is playing as good as he ever has.
“It is wonderful to have Earl back on the Mosconi Cup team this year. We all know that he brings fire and that intimidation factor to our team and the 20th Mosconi Cup would not be the same without Earl there,” US captain Johnny Archer.

Mika makes five for Team Europe
MIKA IMMONEN, a three time PartyPoker.net Mosconi Cup winner, will be going all out for title number four when he makes his 15th appearance in the annual Europe v America 9 ball battle at the Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas from 2nd to 5th December.
The New York-based Finn last played in 2010 when he was on the winning side in London and you would need to look all the way back to 1996 when he made his debut alongside the likes of Steve Davis and Ronnie O’Sullivan in a narrow 15-13 defeat.
Immonen is the only player ever to bag two MVP awards – in Las Vegas in 2003 and Malta in 2008 - and he has a 53% win record over 70 matches played. He now joins Ralf Souquet, Darren Appleton, Karl Boyes and Niels Feijen in a side that has 42 Mosconi Cup appearances between them.
“I'm absolutely proud to be joining Ralf, Darren, Niels and Karl and I think that is a pretty solid looking team,” said Immonen.

The Twomey Run Away Train Steams on
So the Total9Ball Amateur Series is back with the 2013/14 edition and it looks better than ever. T9B this season added Dynamic Billiards to the ever growing list of sponsors who are offering Euro Tour places so the opportunity is there for players to not only compete at the beautiful Hurricane Room club in St Albans but perhaps in other locations around Europe this season.
28 players headed for St Albans yesterday for event one of the ten event series. Matches remained as a race to seven with all players being assigned a handicap ranging from -3 to +3. Each player who enters a T9B Amateur Series event gets entered into the draw twice and is therefore hoping to win all matches to meet themselves in the Final, if a player achieves this not only do they scoop the Winners and Runners up prize money but they will also receive the accumulated jackpot prize which increases at each event and currently stands at an impressive £150. Matches began at 10am and there seemed to be a tense atmosphere as each player was obviously hoping to start the season well and score some good early ranking points.
Richard Twomey (The Twominater) took the final T9B event of last season... The Masters which was an event of single elimination and races to 14. Richard looked completely at home during this event but could he produce the same form over this event with shorter races? Twomey completed round one without defeat but only by the skin of his teeth as Karim Moloo pushed him all the way only to ended up falling one rack short losing 7-6, Karim is a relatively new player to T9B events however he is looking better and better at each event he attends and I’m sure it won’t be long before Moloo gets to a Final of an event or even better wins one. Twomey had a bye in his other match so kept his two lives after round one.

Boyes Buzzing for Mosconi XX!
ENGLAND’S KARL BOYES will make his second appearance in the PartyPoker.net Mosconi Cup as he takes his place on Team Europe for the annual transatlantic pool battle at the Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas from 2nd to 5th December.
The 29 year-old former World 8 Ball champion becomes the fourth member of Team Europe and joins Ralf Souquet, Darren Appleton and Niels Feijen in the side, with one more player to be announced.
“I am absolutely thrilled to be picked to represent Europe in this year’s Mosconi Cup. To represent Team Europe any year is very special but to be picked for the 20th anniversary is surreal,” said Boyes.
